Hello crafty friends! Welcome to the December blog hop! We are so excited that you are here! Today, we are showcasing our favorite Inspired by Stamping stamp sets!

I used some scrappy pieces of paper for this card. I then cut some washi tape as a banner and added a IBS flower. After cutting out my sentiment and frame, I popped it up using some foam dimensionals.

I made my second card for my MIL. Her best friend passed away yesterday and we are heading to the funeral tomorrow. So I made this for her using the Heartfelt Greetings and Elegant Flowers stamp set.

I gently stamped pink flowers for the Elegant Flowers set on white card stock for the background. I then stamped my sentiment with brown ink. I used IBS flowers and crochet trim for a vintage feel.

The Sky’s The Limit takes center stage with my 3rd card. I really enjoyed making this card filled with bright colors!

I used the free .svg files for the balloons that we offer with each IBS stamp set. After cutting them out, I stamped the balloons using different colors. I love how quick and easy these are to use! I used two different IBS ribbons along the bottom of my card with a little red bow under my sentiment.

Big Notes, IBS Flowers and Leaves, and some IBS crochet trim were used for my last card today. I made a ruffle border along the middle of my card with some crochet trim. Next, I used my Silhouette to cut the gorgeous borders for my card.

“Thinking of You” sentiment was cut on a 1-1/2” piece of cream card stock. I then used the square punch to cut the end of the paper to make a banner. Three red flowers and two leaves were glued next to the sentiment.

Oh my gosh Joanna, every one of these cards are just gorgeous! I love all of them and especially the sympathy one, I know your MIL will appreciate it so much. The balloon one is just adorable and the Thinking of You one is so pretty! Love the ruffled crochet trim.

What beautiful cards, had a hard time deciding on a favorite, but I believe I am going to go with the hot air ballon card. Thank you for all the inspiration and the changes to your blog has offered new inspiration from other artist. Once again thank you and have a blessed day.
